And finally, huge thanks to @Petar Tasev for providing us with the amazing EGO Editor applications. Without them, it would be literally impossible to create mods.
I may have missed other members for some minor assets in this mod. So if you find any of your assets without being credited, then please tell me. Thank you.
- FORGET ABOUT accelerating the time or doing one-shot qualifying, as the laptimes will be ultra-slow.
- Scenario mode is unplayable.
- Career mode doesn't end in Abu Dhabi, as the number of races per season is capped at 19. This is impossible to fix sadly.

Some FAQ's:
THE DATABASE FILE HAS AN ISSUE WHEN I TRY TO EDIT IT, IS THERE ANY WAY TO FIX IT?
OR:
THE LIVERY IS BROKEN FOR THE 2ND DRIVER.
The instruction is here:

THE GAME IS SO LAGGY. It is due to the converted models being so heavy. We've been trying to optimize them all in otder to improve gameplay performance.
THE AI'S KEEP GOING OFF TRACK. You have to use every handling asset in this mod and not from any other mods.
You have to make sure you've read all the descriptions at this Overview page (HERE) and at the Updates tab.
Any problems, please post it on discussion topic. I'm not dealing with low rated stupid and toxic comments!
